“Music for the Apocalypse” (EW cover story, 6-13) was a great happening and I’m so glad to have the Weekly story. Maybe we should stop formulating climate change legislation that will take years to implement and have a carbon tax? Cap-and-trade and other suggestions will only take years to make a difference.
Another quick approach could be an increase in industrial emission permits to operate along with a gas tax?
We need action to make a difference now!

Help keep truly independent
local news alive!
As the year wraps up, we’re reminded — again — that independent local news doesn’t just magically appear. It exists because this community insists on having a watchdog, a megaphone and occasionally a thorn in someone’s side.
Over the past two years, you helped us regroup and get back to doing what we do best: reporting with heart, backbone, and zero corporate nonsense.
If you want to keep Eugene Weekly free and fearless… this is the moment.
